About Portrait of an Obsession

Portrait of an Obsession is a horror-themed puzzle adventure game created by FM Studio, where art and addiction become indistinguishable. Players will follow an admirer of a cursed image as he wanders through a gloomy house full of secrets and faces strange riddles waiting to be solved.

Story Of Portrait Of An Obsession

A man, who we shall call "the landlord" for the purposes of this discussion, is the central character of Portrait of an Obsession. He is fixated with an odd artwork. He is on vacation in Japan at the start of the novel when he notices a painting that interests him for no apparent reason. Because the work is so valuable, he is unable to sell it, so in a fit of wrath, he makes the biggest mistake of his life and steals it.

From then on, the door to bad things starts to open. The painting that looks innocent has a curse on it that makes his house into a maze of complicated puzzles and sinister secrets. Your job is to follow the trail of the portrait and discover a method to stay alive before it eats you too.
